02:46:14 congrats gingeropolous , fully funded https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/gingeropolous_zenith_storage.html 05:56:44 50 additional tickets will be available for sale soon on monerokon.com sign up to the waiting list to get an email alert 05:57:11 we have increased the capacity to 200 06:39:01 Did you know that story of the 40 tickets bought by MajesticBank? Or did you only learn about it now, from their Reddit post? 07:20:57 They asked about buying a large amount, but we declined the request 07:23:42 Most tickets were purchased anonymously, so we have no idea who bought what and how many in total 07:33:51 Oh my. This makes the whole thing even more ambivalent. 09:10:31 1st milestone and a Minimal Viable Product of SolOptXMR: 09:10:32 https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/299#note_16590 09:10:32 https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/v072o3/soloptxmr_minimum_viable_product_1st_milestone/ 09:10:32 Thanks for reading! 10:34:01 That's excellent information mj-xmr[m], dankon. It is easy to understand from the wise choice of colours, diagrams, and charts. 10:34:11 Are you going to present the information at the forthcoming Konferenco? 10:47:30 "Are you going to present the..." <- I'm not ready for this, but thanks for thinking about it. 10:47:30 I believe I will present it once we reach all our 4 milestones. Only then it will become automated enough to present it to larger electricity producers. 10:48:59 "That's excellent information mj..." <- Thanks for that. The colors you see are inverted to spare your eyes. The default Python ones are even more suggestive as there the Sun plot is yellow, as one example. 10:59:06 > <@mj-xmr:matrix.org> I'm not ready for this, but thanks for thinking about it. 10:59:07 > I believe I will present it once we reach all our 4 milestones. Only then it will become automated enough to present it to larger electricity producers. 10:59:07 Meaning, that there's little point in presenting it TWICE. 13:00:37 There is a meeting here today https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/707 14:16:42 * ofrnxmr[m] uploaded an image: (246KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/monero.social/gDBRputsUweRmZVfCEsNrNqJ/Imagepipe_128.jpg > 14:16:54 * ofrnxmr[m] uploaded an image: (246KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/monero.social/REMSJSJAVcxfEekuXfJDbryo/Imagepipe_127.jpg > 14:18:51 wow 14:19:44 sech1 said 'strange' things happen over 1500 miners? 14:21:09 Maybe someone is testing that 14:21:32 Because those extra 700 miners only added 3h/s/miner 14:22:55 On the smaller pools it looks like miners are doing 5-30h/s 14:22:55 #allbots? 14:23:53 Which means... my 30-60h/sec miners are > average.. 🤔 14:48:26 No, each of these 1500 miners actually mined a share in the last 72 hours 15:29:25 thank you everyone. this means a lot to me! can't wait to get it started 15:30:05 looking for someone who wants to keep some of the more "controversial" ccs proposals in check. i cant deal with it anymore. its just people with their own ccs proposals (aka financial incentive) ganging up against critisism. 15:32:39 * ccs proposals "in check, * in check". i 15:35:17 I've emailed invoices to everyone on the monerokon waiting list. Your tickets are reserved for 24 hours, after which, they will be release to the public for purchase. If you didn't get an email, check your spam box. 15:41:03 tick tock! 15:52:50 "looking for someone who wants to..." <- Go ahead and criticize me :) 15:53:11 you did solxmr, right? 15:53:24 All the criticism I ever get is from WelfarePrussia, which is far from being constructive. 15:53:29 monerobull[m]: Yep 15:54:41 "thank you everyone. this means a..." <- Thank you for your help / service and reaching out to your users :) 15:55:49 yeah no, awesome proposal. 15:56:31 i just didnt interact with it because i dont know much about solar power 15:58:31 With that Hong Kong guy's proposal, I feel you. I really don't want to add insult to the wound there, as he maybe didn't deserve it from me, but it all sounds shady. 15:59:28 will k's first proposal 'promised the world' - he was then seen later in the monero dev channel asking how to detect outputs that belong to a wallet 15:59:46 What annoyed me though was that he compares my budget with his, while our is divided into two, and doesn't contain the additional XMR component of the same USD value as the USD component itself. Therefore making his budget per person 4 TIMES LARGER. 16:00:13 and generally quite combative / aggressive / insulting to other contributors 16:00:13 plowsof[m]: Simple. Download the wallet from bitcoincore.org 16:00:53 plowsof[m]: It's their cultural thing. As soon as these types reach some level of power (I'm a manager), they tend to abuse it. 16:01:12 but i have said to other people that we still owe him something for creating the 'let me speak to management' meme 16:01:12 Not a real anarchistic type at all. 16:01:54 plowsof[m]: Oh yeah. That for sure. I'd give my 10 hard earned XMRs for that, but his proposals just can't seem to get merged ... I think I HAVE TO call the management about it. 16:04:24 mj-xmr[m]: This also reminds me of how China boosts their GDP "on paper" via construction of (ultimately) "ghost cities". 16:05:34 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under-occupied_developments_in_China 16:05:39 "A common assumption by foreign media is that local officials are strictly incentivized to start construction on this newly created urban land to boost GDP growth and look good within the Party. However, Wade Shepard points out many places which started becoming ghost cities were under the jurisdiction of an area with already strong GDP growth. He argues that these developments are seen as an investment for the future and promote 16:05:40 development with timescales of over 20 years.[4]" 16:05:59 But nevermind that. 16:09:05 i just dont really want to deal with the slander of "ohhh maybe youll doxx customers if you are in a bad mood" 16:09:57 I don't know the details of this, so I can only hope that it was a big misunderstanding. 16:10:43 Anyway, I saw your last comment. It was indeed time to back off. 16:10:49 and carry on :) 16:12:44 I mean, that Will k proposal looks shady enough already anyway. I THINK nobody wants to say it loudly. 16:16:36 not even apple blocks you from opening the debug consol on their website :P 16:24:11 "not even apple blocks you from..." <- I see you liked my little joke :) 16:24:49 "UHM.

It was my risk of poor estimation. 18:01:34 Anyway, I want to have a nice meeting now. Begone. 18:02:03 Alot of activity here, just in time for the meeting :D https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/707 18:02:20 2. Greetings 18:02:21 Hello. 18:02:24 Hello everyone! 18:02:42 Hello 18:02:42 Hello 18:02:43 Hi 18:02:48 Hi 18:02:51 hi 18:03:24 Thanks for joining us, lets just go over some of the events that happened since the last meeting ~2 weeks ago 18:03:31 Hi 18:03:53 the usual news sources: News: [Monero Observer](https://www.monero.observer/) - [Monero Moon](https://www.themoneromoon.com/) - [Revuo Monero](https://revuo-xmr.com/) - [The Monero Standard](https://localmonero.co/nojs/the-monero-standard/) 18:04:26 Firstly i just wanted to thank SethForPrivacy for helping with the HF with simple [testnet monerod nodes](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/utzyyz/help_test_out_the_upcoming_monero_network_upgrade/) and he made a [BTCpay server guide](https://sethforprivacy.com/guides/accepting-monero-via-btcpay-server/) for Monero 18:05:12 Ditatompel adds 'fee estimate' to [node list](https://www.ditatompel.com/monero/remote-node) 18:06:34 -[Monero.fail](https://monero.fail) adds 'Web compatible' (usable for browser wallets such as HotShop 18:07:12 and p2pool has been growing, ALOT 18:07:18 we even have XMR<->ETH [Atomic swaps on stagenet](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/ux6lzk/ethxmr_atomic_swap_development_update_live_on/) 18:07:42 RINO willing to partly fund an audit for multisig fix [#8149](https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/8149) 18:08:48 "web compatible" column in monero.fail for website wallets.. there has been alot of news in the last 2 weeks. would anyone like to talk about anything on their minds? 18:09:10 Majestic bank kinda goofed up 18:09:26 Rino is looking very good, especially for those of us who prefer not using web wallets but want the convenience. 18:10:07 Majestic bank giving away 40 free tickets to Monerokon 18:11:08 They have good intentions but they executed it without putting much thought into it 18:11:57 Hopefully Monerokon has a great turnout. The events team are nothing but professional in their planning 18:12:49 will jump into ccs ideas if no one wishes to bring some events up 18:13:29 I am once again asking for the closure of Afghanistan expansion strategy ccs 18:14:43 noted. spirobel is currently reinventing that proposal / resubmitting it i believe, so we await the new one. (will touch on it again later) 18:15:54 We have binarybaron and morpheus with us i believe to discuss their current proposals 18:16:00 4. [CCS updates](https://ccs.getmonero.org/) 18:16:29 Yep I'm here guys 18:16:29 [Moneroj.net improvements, articles and maintenance (3 months)](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ 18:16:34 Me too 18:16:40 Thanks! 18:16:53 lets discuss moneroj.net first 18:16:59 thje proposal has changed slightly 18:17:20 Morpheus has created 10 new charts from his CCS list, and also split it in half as a sign of good faith. so if the new proposal is funded, a 2nd one would be made for further work. 18:17:51 sorry , here is the link to the proposal https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/318 18:18:14 Morpheus: is there any way the site could get speed up with more funding? Some charts take quite some time to load 18:18:44 Yes, I intend to use a better server, and I need funding to spend some time working on the database 18:19:14 The website should take less than a second to load when everything is done 18:19:26 is the amount 35 or 70? 18:19:27 Morpheus: You mention that having an onion hidden service would be difficult. In my experience, it is quite easy. Just adjust some config options in NGINX and get `tor` running. SethForPrivacy has a guide on his blog. I think you may be able to do it without much additional work. 18:19:29 "New server, fix bugs, loading speed, improve the interface and build new charts 18:19:29 I need to invest into a new, improved and faster server; 18:19:29 " 18:20:11 Rucknium[m]: Cool, I can try that too in the future. Can I talk to you about this when It's time? 18:20:26 I would like some tips too 18:20:32 amount is now 35 - with a 2nd proposal for another 35 after 1st complete 18:21:12 Morpheus[m]: Ping me when the time comes, happy to help you get a hidden service setup 🙂 18:21:23 ooo123 don't worry we are discussing jeffros ccsd, after the atomic swaps gui 18:21:29 Is the proposal split? Or a second proposal is a new proposal 18:21:43 sethforprivacy: I'll certainly ping you. Thanks a lot 18:22:34 i suggested to split it into 2 proposals if the community had an issue with a 1st ccs being for higher amounts 18:22:48 is it a static website? 18:22:54 Morpheus: you can also ping me if Seth is busy at the time, I recently created a hidden service for MO and can help as well 18:23:01 if 1st proposal is funded and everyone is happy, the 2nd proposal would also be funded 18:23:14 Morpheus: Sure, no problem. My other comments are that the website seems quite focused on Monero as a speculative investment. That's not my cup of tea, but I know that it is some people's cups of tea, so it's OK I suppose. Also, I think you refer to Gresham's law in the text of the website, but misapply it IMHO. 18:23:42 Rucknium[m]: The charts make me feel better about buying xmr lmao 18:23:55 ofrnxmr[m]: I split the original into two so people would be more comfortable. This is the first one, and it is about half the work of the original. Dont know if I'm being clear 18:24:11 Gresham's law deals with the case when the face value of coinage is the same but the coinage has different metal content value. 18:24:56 Is there no other meaning? 18:24:56 At current prices, 35 and 70xmr is still a lot. (6-12k) 18:24:56 Would this require constant funding ? 18:25:12 selsta : at the moment it is javascript site, but morpheus has attempted to reduce the amount of js required? 18:25:13 shouldn't we be careful with darknet related statistics? 18:25:27 escapethe3ra[m]: Thanks, I love your work 18:25:46 selsta: It's arguably our niche 18:26:19 selsta: I run python to calculate the charts on the backend 18:26:34 Morpheus: do you know any markets that currently accept ZCash? 18:27:26 to clarify , you are asking for 35 xmr now. and then you will make another ccs of 35 xmr in the future? 18:27:26 > <@ofrnxmr:monero.social> At current prices, 35 and 70xmr is still a lot. (6-12k) 18:27:26 > 18:27:26 > Would this require constant funding ? 18:27:26 No.. it's just because I have to put a lot of time to build the charts, after they are ready, the server costs are small 18:28:11 plowsof[m]: Yes, that's the idea, because there will still be a lot of work ahead if people want more data on the website, or more improvements 18:28:57 I still think we should be careful with darknet related stats 18:29:42 but the core team has to decide that in the end if they are ok with funding something like that on the CCS 18:30:02 selsta: I believe my mission is to provide information. The website should be transparent in that sense 18:30:06 People who feel like they need to use the markets should know only xmr is safe 18:30:25 But I can understand your view, sure 18:30:57 Morpheus[m]: yes, but if you directly or indirectly link to darknet markets this can cause issues if it's funded by the monero community 18:31:01 monerobull[m]: No, xD not yet 18:31:32 selsta: Doesn't he just show dread subscribers? 18:31:46 I'm going by what is says in the proposal 18:31:55 Darknet adoption (DN markets, seft reported); 18:32:31 This is only for 45 days? 18:32:31 I have to vote no. 18:32:31 - same proposal but basically forced a second. 18:32:31 - rates are higher than researcher rates 18:32:46 selsta: Ah, ok, I understant now. Yeah, I wont lilnk anything about darknet on the website. 18:33:05 selsta: So far the "regulators" have been really easy on us for some reason. 18:33:06 there were websites that were raided that just linked to darknet markets 18:33:09 The only DN chart I built is about forum users, so that's ok I think 18:33:23 the operators were raided to be precise 18:33:36 0.o 18:33:57 Yeah, you guys are right. I wont build the darknet markets chart, just leave the one I already built, which is about users on a Forum 18:34:06 selsta: It's very important that you make us all aware of this. 18:34:40 Morpheus[m]: what would be your hourly rate? 18:34:45 Well linking to the .onion ala dark.fail is way different than having a chart that says alphabay: 500 vendors 18:34:53 selsta: Yeah, I can remove that. No problem. 18:35:49 selsta: About 1xmr per day, excluding weekends 18:37:02 ofrnxmr[m]: seems to be higehr than 1xmr 18:37:26 it would be nice if you could more clearly write down the rate and hours planned to work per month 18:37:52 unless i overread it 18:37:58 selsta: Being honest, I am already working 8 hours a day on this, because I have a lot of free time. For example I built 5 charts this week and worked yesterday the whole day, so I'm calculating around 6 hours a day at 21 usd / hour I think 18:38:31 I think we have brought up all the relevant points for this proposal? (needs more discussion / input from core it seems ) we have 2 more to discuss 18:38:56 Something around that. 5 hours a day isn't that hard for me, because I like working on my project 18:39:06 Morpheus[m]: ok, would be great if you could clarify it in the CCS and so that it is possible to see how you calculated the 35 XMR 18:39:26 Ok, no problem 18:39:45 Right binarybaron 18:40:31 Thats on 7 days per week. 18:40:31 5 days Lee week is 34/hr 18:40:38 Per* 18:41:14 As I said, I work on weekends because that's something I like to do 18:41:53 Today I worked the whole morning, uploaded the new charts, etc 18:42:15 This can be clarified and discussed again shortly. (the rates and such) lets move on to the other proposal. Thank you for taking the feedback on board Morpheus 18:42:26 ok 18:42:34 [XMR BTC Atomic Swaps Desktop GUI - Continued development](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/321) | [reddit thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/uybc5n/ccs_proposal_xmrbtc_atomic_swaps_gui_desktop_app/) 18:42:43 Move 18:42:45 Forward 18:43:29 my 2 cents : As an outsider who has not used atomic swaps, i have only seen the support questions.. the thing where you have to 'do something' before 'x blocks / time' or you lose your funds because 'something happened' (e.g. technical issue or alice doesnt have enough funds). The process is not noob friendly at all. 18:43:29 Part of the proposal is to tackle this issue so the cancel / refund will be made much easier. (people will be able to do it using the GUI / see a warning / timer) 18:43:53 this is a 'new' proposal but has alot of updoots on reddit 18:45:51 wasn't atomic swaps abandoned by the comit team? 18:45:53 i was assured that it would 'work' after the hard fork. but one thing we must consider is that comit is officially 'not maintained' 18:46:00 ajs_[m]: yes, that's what i thought too 18:46:17 Doesn't binarybaron maintain it with 2 others 18:46:18 and this proposal is 4 months funding into the future 18:46:20 Unpaid 18:46:42 150xmr for an interface 18:46:42 is comparable to haveno 18:46:42 But the backend isnt maintained and this is only maintenance 18:46:47 in the ccs proposal they state 5% or so of time may be fore actuall pull requests to the 'swap_cli' 18:46:52 https://github.com/comit-network/xmr-btc-swap/commits/master 18:47:45 are we funding a gui for an abandonned project when we could fund him to make a gui for 'farcaster' ? is my only concern 18:48:38 Just curious but did Farcaster do anything in the last 6 months? 18:48:45 yes https://github.com/farcaster-project/farcaster-node/commits/main 18:49:25 Ok 👌 18:49:34 they are presenting stuff at monerokon 18:50:20 and have a workshop on using farcaster 18:50:27 binarybaron assures that the atomic swaps are functional though and will continue to be after the hard fork , its just a concern about its 'not maintained status' - but the popularity of the proposal / people willing to donate is clear 18:51:37 how dependent would the gui be on swap-cli from comit? 18:52:00 could it work on farcaster? 18:52:40 good question(s) will pass these on to baron 18:53:35 the meeting might extend passed the hour to discuss the jeffro proposal (if we have devs in here to discuss it) 18:53:44 also for his CCS it would be good to write down the rate and approx worked hours per week 18:54:05 more clarification of rates again, yep 18:54:28 I dont think we should be funding a ui for a separate project that is dead/unmaintained and mostly benefits people that need to get rid of dirty bitcoin 18:54:28 If a ui for farcaster, then you can compare to haveno. 18:54:28 But if comit is in limbo.. 18:54:41 37xmr/month to maintain an existing up 18:55:12 ok lets take the gloves off and let oo123 jump into the jeffro proposal. he has been very patient 18:56:05 [jeffro256: part-time dev work 2022Q3](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/319) 18:56:47 support from my side, with focus on gui, rpc, protocol spec 18:57:28 oo123 , if you consider point number 10 to be the most controversial, we have assurance that he is gong to 'leave it alone' / not do drastic changes 'just because' 18:57:55 i would love if jeffro focussed on the gui with selsta / community node list 19:02:20 damn, thanks mj ! 19:03:00 jeff vs oo000. 19:03:00 Fight. 19:03:48 Thank you all for joining btw, we're just waiting for everyone to voice their concerns on jeffros proposal.

There were just a few easy parts. 19:05:36 I don't understand the 2nd part of your question. 19:06:16 ooo123ooo1234567: Yes. There's a Quickstart section in the README.md from the start for a reason. Have you tried? 19:06:41 mj-xmr[m]: Ok, can pull steps from README.md and put them into list under your proposal ? 19:06:47 So that anyone can verify what you've done 19:06:52 now and any time later 19:07:17 And learn from you how to simulate 96 hours from few python libs 19:07:32 ooo123ooo1234567: Always the same way - run the quickstart steps. I care about documenting my stuff and I'm happy for a constrictive criticism. 19:07:45 Your fiction literature docs leave for incompetent people who will read/write/or even use that code 19:07:59 * who will not read/write/or even 19:07:59 ooo123ooo1234567: No, thanks.

(also monerujo has nfc functions), cryptogrampy is busy with hotshop :D 19:08:46 OK guys, just tell me when you want to switch subject :) 19:08:50 ooo123ooo1234567: WOULD ENJOY SOME STIMULATION OF MY PYTHON LIB 19:09:05 sorry hi I'm here at this meeting 19:09:24 If there are questions about implementing NFC interactions in hardware, I will try to answer. 19:09:27 oh hi! How's life? :) 19:09:49 mj-xmr[m]: Don't jump from topic 19:10:21 I don't want to be annoying, but I think you don't realize, that you're attracting a bit too much attention now. 19:10:24 NFC instant payment is a nogo for HotShop FYI. discussed with a couple people and wallet 1's viewkey/primary will not be able to generate an offline unsigned tx for wallet 2 (customer) to sign offline and send back via NFC for monero technical reasons 19:10:25 python is the easiest language, there are many people who can code in it; please, describe how to verify your work; others want to learn 19:10:38 would you benefit from a developer 'mocking' up the workflow of a monero transaction using an NFC badge msvb-labs , or , are the steps involved known? 19:10:48 wallet 1 would need wallet 2's primary/view key to generate an unsigned payment 19:11:46 Before I go through the hassle of submitting a proposal, would anyone support giving me 15 xmr to subsidize 100 1.75kg boxes of stickers? Right now there are only 5 more subsidized packages available 🥺 19:11:49 If anyone can get luigi1111 on the phone though, Milestone 2 is complete- i'd like to have the payment go to my grandson's monero address. I've been getting some amazing feedback for completing Milestone 3. 19:11:53 ooo123ooo1234567: OK. I verify it by monitoring the battery drain. If you are presented with a solution that shows you, that the battery charge goes below it's declared minimum, then I failed my milestone. 19:13:03 I would not benefit from that plowsof[m], no. 19:13:05 cryptogrampy[m]: I usually text him directly on such issues. He reacts after max 2 days. 19:13:23 plowsof[m]: no, there's literally no way for a PoS to generate an unsigned tx for someone's random offline wallet without some custodial magic involved, or someone learning the view key of the customer. 19:13:44 monerobull[m]: Open a proposal for 70xmr 19:13:57 The way of the ccs kek 19:14:55 ok i think we can call the meeting over at 15~ mins passed the hour, apologies as we still have some loose ends to tie up , thank you all for attending 19:14:59 mj-xmr[m]: Concrete steps under each milestone how to verify that it was reached; not here, in your proposal 19:15:21 ooo123ooo1234567: OK. 19:15:53 If anyone has HotShop recommendations though- that they would like to see added into Milestone 3 release, please feel free to ping me. 19:16:20 I would still really appreciate it if anyone could get a web-compatible public node up and running. *cough* Seth For Privacy *cough* 19:16:57 ooo123ooo1234567: https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/299#note_16611 19:17:12 https TLS + rpc-access-control-origins=* in your node config. 19:17:47 mj-xmr[m]: Concrete steps for each milestone without recursion or any links 19:17:56 meeting adjourned, i can now go back to reading reddit and watching youtube and get popcorn to read ooo123 , my guilty pleasure 19:17:58 s/recursion or// 19:18:03 Is https working ok for you? Or did you have to use Arleta's master-beta 19:18:04 * self-contained concrete steps for each milestone without any links 19:18:08 I don't repeat myself. 19:18:09 * node config. Tor nodes only need the rpc-access-control-origin=* flag- please don't add https to your tor node. 19:18:10 Selsta 19:18:52 so an NFC badge ... would need to 'give' its view key when swiping.. 19:18:58 ofrnxmr[m]: hard to say. I haven't seen any crazy stuff with leaking memory usage or CPU, but I have had to restart the node a couple times. 19:19:10 I'm using the regular node 19:19:10 the PoS would need to... ok im lost 19:19:41 i did try building selstas with some modifications to seth's dockerfile to no avail. have to look a little closer i guess 19:19:43 cryptogrampy[m]: Yeah, after I would make a few https connections my node would stop accepting connections and would have to restart 19:19:44 Good meeting and great moderation plowsof[m], dankon. 19:20:02 Thanks for the meeting 19:20:08 ofrnxmr[m]: yes? 19:20:25 for now i'm not sure about the security implications of running with `rpc-access-control-origin=*´ so I don't have it on my nodes 19:20:45 "Open a proposal for 70xmr..." <- What do you recomend I do? I'll indeed put as many hours into it as possible, and I'll probably deliver way mone than what is in the proposal. I'm fine with criticism, that's good. Do you happen to like my work? 19:20:45 msvb-web: Yes thanks. Love that proto-German too. 19:20:53 plowsof[m]: in the nfc situation- the PoS needs access to the customer's view key in order to scan and export incoming outputs, which the offline wallet uses to export key images, 19:21:14 > <@mj-xmr:matrix.org> 1st milestone and a Minimal Viable Product of SolOptXMR:...

Had enough beef today 19:30:01 * Dude, no idea im too tired. Had enough beef today 19:30:47 monerobull[m]: The problem with proposals is lack of verification, not who is doing and what. 19:31:24 sethforprivacy: one of my goals in life is to be a stickynote on your desktop 19:32:11 I think that something is wrong with the minds of the kids these days. 19:32:11 You write a working product, you write a comprehensive documentation, you share the source, yet their brains still have no ways of comprehending what's before their very eyes. 19:32:12 ooo123ooo1234567: Tell me about it. I made a whole new proposal about translating a bunch of stuff only to discover someone finished it 3 months prior but never had his work merged and didn't get paid out 19:34:16 https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/wobole-german-translation-subtitles.html 19:34:25 Still stuck in limbo 19:34:51 the was this whole problem with translators scamming using machine translations 19:34:59 And nobody can give me a moderator account to finally merge that shit 19:35:29 I'd proofread that shit for free 19:35:45 i did read it and it was trash 19:35:49 Translations is its own thing for sure 19:35:51 but don't know if it's the same one you linked 19:36:15 The German looked good from what little I saw 19:36:54 monerobull[m]: And in ideal case you must get at least part reward for all mistakes or full reward if that's machine translation 19:37:03 The same with this scammer: define how to verify your work 19:37:51 verifying machine translations to see if CCS is done correctly is more work than submitting machine translations 19:37:56 The same with haveno frontend: define how to verify that work 19:38:16 And those who can do work faster and correctly must get full reward 19:38:43 ooo123ooo1234567: Define "correctly" 19:38:56 What's the purpose to verify work of scammer if luigi1111 approve it anyway without any punishment 19:38:58 Anyways, if someone manages to dig up whoever admins the translation panel, pm me 19:39:28 monerobull[m]: and the person behind it is gone? 19:39:41 mj-xmr[m]: It must be defined before any proposal get any funding; facepalm; 19:39:53 selsta: They finished their work 3 months ago, what are they supposed to do? 19:39:58 mj-xmr[m]: If goal of proposal is not verifiable then it's obvious corruption 19:40:03 Or maybe 4 at this point 19:40:21 ooo123ooo1234567: Define what have you tried to prove me wrong. 19:40:43 selsta: I think it was wobole 19:40:47 mj-xmr[m]: Specify concrete steps to verify each milestone 19:40:56 Not sure what happened to translations though 19:40:57 luigi1111: Yeah 19:41:02 ooo123ooo1234567: Execute steps in Quickstart. 19:41:05 The translation is there 19:41:13 It just needs to be approved 19:41:31 But that is done through some stupid upvote process 19:41:34 Does wobole not care about it? 19:42:12 mj-xmr[m]: Copy&paste full quickstart then 19:42:33 > <@mj-xmr:matrix.org> Execute steps in Quickstart. 19:42:33 * Full quickstart ? then copy&paste it completely 19:42:34 What is he supposed to do without reviewers 19:43:03 ooo123ooo1234567: No. It belongs to the project. If you want to verify the project, you have already checked out its README.md anyway. Go there. 19:44:02 I've created a tag for the delivered milestone, so that the newest Quickstart version don't derail against the presented milestone. 19:44:41 Have you ever had a job in IT? Or any other? 19:45:56 OK. Enough of this childsplay. If somebody wants to talk like men, I'm open for a constructive discussion. 19:45:57 And you should create another alias. 19:47:25 mj-xmr[m]: if there are two implementations, how to check which one is better ? 19:47:53 > <@mj-xmr:matrix.org> OK.

I didn't hear anything about it though. Also trx manager was supposed to help with that but he seems to have disappeared (?) 20:25:40 What's the purpose to verify work of scammer if luigi1111 approve it anyway without any punishment <= in the case of hourly work, it's not very straightforward to verify. A reasonable approach is evaluation at end of period and determining "hey this was worth the money let's renew" or not. Historically devs have been more or less "auto-renew" if rate wasn't egregious; this obviously doesn't work so well if there's a 20:25:40 significant issue. 20:26:47 "and this "1 week" estimate you..." <- "https://github.com/mj-xmr" from github activity since 19 May 20:28:30 there is a lot of activity there 20:28:36 what am I supposed to look at? 20:28:50 sech1: count number of non-gray squares 20:29:24 they are all non-gray after May 19 20:31:09 sech1: That isn't 2 weeks if that work is hourly paid 20:31:38 And at the same time this scammer is doing some "maintenance" of monero repo; with 30h/week 20:32:59 " What's the..." <- Obvious conclusion: CCS mustn't be paid by hours, since it's impossible to verify; Is it possible to setup competition for hours spent on something ? I suppose the most incompetent charlatan will win it 20:33:56 " What's the..." <- This rate based payments underestimate work of those are doing hard problems and allows abuse by incompetent people, since spent time isn't verifiable thing. 20:34:20 s/doing/solving/ 20:34:54 that's why people solving hard problems should have a significantly higher rate 20:35:20 selsta: incompetent charlatan has 50% of UkoeHB 20:35:22 though he is doing nothing 20:35:27 by this claim UkoeHB should have +inf rate 20:37:11 that's fair; hourly CCSes may not be tenable outside specific circumstances 20:51:55 " What's the..." <- Can you ask that scammer to specify goal for each milestone in verifiable way ? 20:57:00 "Can you ask that scammer to..." <- Do you need evidence that it's scammer ? 20:58:52 " What's the..." <- There is no value in discussion under proposal except when it helps to make goal more verifiable, or it helps to point out problems in proposal to punish incompetent abuser 21:05:48 " What's the..." <- "A reasonable approach is evaluation at end of period and teremining ..." without ability to verify goal ? 21:06:15 s/teremining/deremining/, s/goal/work/ 21:08:06 ooo123ooo1234567: for which 3 letter agency do you work? 21:12:27 Save_G[m]: facepalm 21:15:36 XMR 21:16:23 nioc: how to expand ? 21:17:05 I assume that is the 3 letter agency that you work for 21:21:05 "Are you going to present the..." <- facepalm 21:29:26 luigi1112: can you describe your internal "engagement meter" that helps you to identify when it's ready to merge proposal of obvious scammer, but any other ? 21:29:37 if you don't care about verification then merge all of them 21:31:04 "https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/311#note_15938" attacking new anonymous proposal, but don't see scammer around; facepalm 21:31:37 the only thing that matters is that goal must be related to monero, and it must be verifiable 21:32:09 In the worst case it's at least possible to prevent abuse for free, in the best case there must be explicit punishment for abuse 21:33:33 "https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/311#note_16588" or this follower of money driven scammer; facepalm 21:34:52 are you for or against the Buisiness Kit proposal oo123 21:37:50 plowsof[m]: there is no such user 21:38:08 "https://teddit.net/r/Monero/comments/v072o3/soloptxmr_minimum_viable_product_1st_milestone/iagszws/#c" facepalm 21:38:53 "https://teddit.net/u/Lynnaignet_293" May 08 2022, fresh account 21:43:12 "there is no such user" <- Plowsof is asking you what your what you think about 21:43:12 https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/311#note_16588 21:43:56 * Plowsof is asking you what you think about 21:43:57 https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/311#note_16588 21:44:20 "are you for or against the..." <- There is no value in opinion of anyone 21:44:30 Only verifiable solutions matter 21:44:47 Yes, but do you have those solutions? 21:44:55 Or can you help find them? 21:46:40 "https://teddit.net/r/Monero/comments/umgew1/mjs_dev_report_aprmay_2022_23/" I have no idea, but it looks like this scammer is talking with himself; facepalm 21:47:13 fresh account, leading intro towards something that only he is caring about 21:47:31 * fresh account, leading intro towards something that only scammer is caring about, and actually failed to deliver via blackbox approach 21:47:47 * fresh account, leading intro towards something that only scammer is caring about, and actually failed to deliver via blackbox approach: fix code without reading it 21:51:07 Monero isnt a company though. 21:51:07 If better people offered their services, better people would be funded 21:51:44 > <@ofrnxmr:monero.social> Monero isnt a company though. 21:51:44 > If better people offered their services, better people would be funded 21:51:44 better solutions, it doesn't matter how these solutions were obtained 21:52:15 is the debate 'hourly rate' vs 'i want to achieve this goal' ? 21:55:19 Plowsof, I think its the price/approval for to quality of work or not work we are paying for 21:55:20 ooo123ooo1234567: am I wrong ? 21:55:20 I also agree that the most essential stuff needs to ve prioritized.

We had a meeting today but I dont recall seeing any proposals for moneys to be paid to you for work 22:28:01 I suppose maximum since I'm ready to compete with everyone here 22:28:16 And there is only competition with everyone at once: rekt.news 22:28:22 * is only one competition, * competition (known to me) with everyone 22:28:40 Open the ccs and list out what youre going to do, my man 22:29:11 If you opened ccs to rewrite p2p protocol, fix SSL etc etc etc, it would have been funded quickly. 22:29:11 Right plowsof: 22:29:18 ofrnxmr[m]: I'm caring about privacy for real unlike that scammer that deanonymized himself in exchange for money (tsqsim) proposal 22:29:37 ofrnxmr[m]: the problem is that we need someone else to review his work 22:29:50 otherwise we are back again like 7760 7999 where there is no review 22:29:56 even though both are important 22:30:05 A God to review a king 22:30:19 yes, reviewers for his work, and we need to pay a public relations team for him 22:30:28 > <@ofrnxmr:monero.social> If you opened ccs to rewrite p2p protocol, fix SSL etc etc etc, it would have been funded quickly. 22:30:28 > 22:30:28 > Right plowsof: 22:30:28 SSL must removed completely; it was implemented poorly, still broken in repo, but some incompetent developers instead of learning what is needed and what is not, are happy to waste time on this SSL; facepalm; 22:31:05 Nobody is using separate certificates per each app on clear net 22:31:20 And non clear networks have e2e encryption bounded to hostname 22:33:47 lets get the ccs contract written up for oo123 . Section 1: I declare that i will never post in public using the name for which this ccs is to be undertaken by Signed:___________ 22:35:02 If you know people who are capable of reviewing your work, perhaps you can bring them over? 22:35:03 Like years ago, when surae brought sarang 22:36:52 > <@ofrnxmr:monero.social> If you know people who are capable of reviewing your work, perhaps you can bring them over? 22:36:52 > 22:36:52 > Like years ago, when surae brought sarang 22:36:52 I know that with strict rules even that scammer will have to work for reward 22:39:05 > <@ofrnxmr:monero.social> If you know people who are capable of reviewing your work, perhaps you can bring them over? 22:39:05 > 22:39:05 > Like years ago, when surae brought sarang 22:39:05 And then both leaved with burnout (one with health problems, the one without probably) 22:39:06 hahahahaha 22:39:17 * And then both leaved with burnout (one with health problems, the other one without probably) 22:39:45 ooo123ooo1234567: you said you know how to setup a competition for multisig 22:39:59 ooo123ooo1234567: I'm competent in my area, which is statistics (econometrics, really). I am not competent in cryptography nor coding C++, which I have discussed before. You are not competent in statistics, AFAIK. 22:43:09 Rucknium[m]: competent people don't afraid of competition and ready to defend their solutions, you're not; 22:46:49 Rucknium is actively trying to recruit new talent (also researchers) into Monero (not afraid of competition) 22:47:17 plowsof[m]: recruit incompetent; facepalm 22:47:26 the goal is to not recruit incompetent though 22:47:47 Wheres ooo's invite :( 22:48:03 Sign the contract ooo123! 22:48:20 4567* 22:48:51 "lets get the ccs contract..." <- I don't understand it 22:50:32 "competent people don't afraid of..." <- I'm not afraid of competition. I want more statisticians working on Monero! I'm ready to defend my solutions. What do you mean by that? 22:50:42 you work -> provide solutions -> get paid . and any of your extra curricular activities must happen under aliases / not related to your CCS name 22:50:51 simple 22:51:13 This is what I was taking about: you don't understand how Monero's privacy model relies on resistance to statistical attack. I suggest you read: 22:51:26 Moser et al. (2018) "An Empirical Analysis of Traceability in the Monero Blockchain" 22:51:32 Ronge, Egger, Lai, Schröder, and Yin (2021) "Foundations of Ring Sampling" 22:51:39 Aslam, Tošić, and Mrissa (2021). "Secure and Privacy-Aware Blockchain Design: Requirements, Challenges and Solutions" 22:51:48 Ni, Cheng, Chen, and Lin (2021) "When the Recursive Diversity Anonymity Meets the Ring Signature" 22:51:54 Wijaya, Liu, Steinfeld, Liu and Yuen (2019) "Anonymity Reduction Attacks to Monero" 22:52:03 Ye, Ojukwu, Hsu, and Hu (2020). "Alt-Coin Traceability" 22:52:50 plowsof[m]: how is it different from current state of things ? what's the purpose of this contract ? 22:53:08 haha 22:53:28 +1 22:54:50 and your rates will be Rate: 50 USD + 0.2 XMR ? 22:55:38 "I'm not afraid of competition. I..." <- "I want more statisticians working on Monero!" the goal should be to reduce privacy leaks in monero, so that there will be no data analyse, no work for statisticians. You're doing completely opposite. 22:56:34 I agree. But with ring signatures there is substantial data to analyze 22:56:47 ooo123ooo1234567: If we don’t do it, others will do it and find flaws 22:57:12 Rucknium is exposing flaws , 'job creation' for people like ooo123 22:58:54 plowsof[m]: Hiring incompetent developer, supporting that scammer, underestimate work of UkoeHB; all of this only increases data leakage 22:59:12 s/underestimate/underestimating/ 23:00:31 I certainly didn't hire anyone. I don't underestimate the work of UkoeHB. But the fact remains that with Seraphis we will still have ring signatures, so there is data for attackers to analyze. 23:01:50 plowsof[m]: and scammer is abusing environment for profit at the same time 23:01:58 highschool musical : 'we're all in this together...' 23:05:27 "If we don’t do it, others will..." <- I've already pointed out few flaws and none of them is fixed; facepalm 23:06:20 "If we don’t do it, others will..." <- And you were advocating for obviously (deterministically, unlike privacy leaks collected via machine learning) insecure thing for users; facepalm 23:06:23 ooo123ooo1234567: Like 0-conf ? 23:07:14 ooo123ooo1234567: What ? I am advocating finding flaws before others find it 23:08:32 nikg83[m]: The final goal is improving this project. And finding flaws without fixing is making project worse, not better. 23:08:43 "and your rates will be Rate..." <- 100usd + 0.2xmr 23:08:55 And I'm asking how Rucknium is going to fix those issues 23:09:11 * those issues or better how someone can verify that issues are indeed fixed 23:09:38 Verification procedure is actually the final goal since it will allow to catch all privacy leaks or prove that it's impossible we can close this project 23:09:50 * it's impossible and we can 23:10:17 Ooo, we/I want you to 😉 23:11:15 Verification procedure is good goal since it can be approached from both sides at the same time; 23:11:38 * Verification procedure is good goal since it can be approached from both sides at the same time 23:12:02 ooo123ooo1234567: I will send you the draft. It's old and incomplete, though. 23:12:36 ofrnxmr[m]: What's the purpose if scammers will get more, will mock anyone who is doing something useful and will joke in the end who gratefully he abused this project for his personal needs 23:12:52 s/who/how/, s/he/they/, s/his/their/ 23:14:01 "100usd + 0.2xmr" <- Add verification procedure for each CCS and anyone competent will get this reward for solving problems from CCS faster or better or pointing out mistakes with proofs 23:15:11 Or better add competition to each CCS so that scammers will not be able to scam 23:16:02 ooo111222333 your texts are very hard to read 23:16:44 ooo123ooo1234567: That would be https://bounties.monero.social , but it doesn’t have a lot of exposure 23:16:53 if you can demonstrate how a competition for e.g. multisig should look, maybe other can understand better what you are proposing 23:17:29 he's talking about bug bounty 23:17:47 nikg83[m]: problem with CCS and bounties that both are created by people that are not interested in competition 23:17:53 at least that's what I translated from his GPT-3 english to normal english 23:19:24 ooo123ooo1234567: Bounties is competition, whoever finishes firsts gets awarded 23:19:40 nikg83[m]: No, there is even example with atomic swap 23:19:57 The first applier for bounty is locking it somehow, preventing anyone else to do it at the same time 23:20:11 ooo123ooo1234567: Eth one? there was some specs issue I think 23:20:13 bounties are bad for writing production code 23:20:20 they encourage people to hurry and make mistakes 23:20:43 sech1: Bounties can get new coders to join ccs and long term development 23:20:48 yeah bounties have their own problems .. contracts would be better 23:21:17 sech1: bounties without verification - yes 23:21:18 New coders, maybe. But I wouldn't let bounties anywhere near critical code 23:21:53 sech1: there must at least two roles: someone who is doing, someone who is trying to crack it / verify 23:21:58 * there must be at least 23:22:09 i would not expect a person who can handle 'hard problems' to engage in some kind of bounty where they are against the clock / risk getting no reward 23:22:29 they already have a well paying job probably 23:22:32 plowsof[m]: No. Competent people can solve any problem faster than anyone else. 23:22:47 bullshit 23:22:55 some people prefer to work slow and tediously 23:23:41 sech1: Learning slowly - yes, doing something already learned - no 23:24:00 sech1: Not to say that some people cant do that a lot faster than others 23:24:00 doing something already learned is not solving a new problem 23:24:38 But, for example. Vtnerd wrote an SSL shutdown patch and perfect daemon rewrote a lot of the code. 23:25:11 If vtnerd finished first, id still want to look at perfect daemons work 23:25:25 As it was.. a lot 23:27:05 https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/7999/commits/744555d5c0391d811843c4a1e72723da086d9f7d 23:30:13 "some people prefer to work..." <- it depends on the task / knowledge of solver / abilities of solver / probably something else. 23:32:36 https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/7760/commits/925c0364d2d8823132cda8cdc84619828c8e4607#r884315795 23:33:13 "doing something already learned..." <- From perspective of solver - yes, from external perspective - no; 23:33:58 "some people prefer to work..." <- "https://github.com/SChernykh/vanity_xmr_cuda" if someone would open CCS for this work, then you would be able to submit solution qucker 23:37:03 (Were confused) what you mean ^ 23:37:27 About ccs 23:38:20 Sarcasm? I think? 23:38:34 not sarcasm, it was an example 23:45:46 Jesus christ, this conversation is still going? 23:46:08 not for long, soon everyone will be asleep
